With the game going to extra time, the Reds gathered their force and went again, with Firmino almost immediately scoring the goal to put Liverpool ahead in the tie for the first time.

Wijnaldum’s cross found him, the Brazilian hit the post with his header—but scored the rebound for his first Anfield goal of the campaign.

With that scoreline the Reds were going through, but a quickfire brace for Atleti sub Marcos Llorente silenced the home crowd.

An Adrian error led to the first, before hesitant defending saw him drill in a similar second, and it proved too much for the Reds to come back from this time, even before Alvaro Morata’s last-second clincher.

The Champions League adventure is over, and Liverpool will have to be content with finishing off a first domestic league title in 30 years in addition to being UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup champions.
